Quit rubbing it in CW. Hey everyone just wanted to share something with you. My lil guy got named a co-captain of his winter swim team by the coaches. He's on could nine. Of course he had no idea what it meant -- but when I'm told him his idol from the team last year was captain he about died.
Anyway -- just sooooooo proud of him. Don't know why the coaches chose him but they did -- even had his swim t-shirt embroidered with Co-captain.
I'm just a gloating father.

Thanks CW and K. Well busy day yesterday. Took H to the kids work shop at Home Depot, then to a hobby shop to check some things out for him. Of course he saw the model rockets and was like "I want one".
Then on to his first swim meet. He swam 5 events -- 3 individual and although only 7 they put him on two 9 - 10 year old relay teams. No he isn't that good -- our team is short on 9 and 10 year olds. But he got two firsts, a second and two thirds. I was a timer and he was in my lane for 4 of the events.
It was great. I even managed to come across cool, confident and aloof with the w. We talked some -- i even joked around. Something seems different with her -- i don't know what -- just get the feeling different. Like reality is getting to her.
I'm just working on me. Hey and yeah nice enough to play soccer today. So I'm looking forward to that. Oh and Ash -- finished up week 6.

I'd say that was overall a VERY successful and fun day!
H sounds like he may be a competitor as he didn't let those big 10 year olds intimidate him!!
FA..I think your w is getting a reality check after all of these months separated. I know my ex is coming across that way. In any event, we can't analyze them as it may be for a variety of reasons.
FA I enjoy reading about your days with H.
It is lovely to have some insight into your world.
So glad you are coming across as 'aloof' way to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your done with the program? Congrats FA I have been focusing on my running but come tomorrow I am going to start it up again and I will keep you posted b/c I am determined to follow through this time.
Love hearing the things you are doing with your son. You are a wonderful father. If I lived closer to you I would ask you to watch my kids!! (just kidding)
Ash, I made it throught the six weeks but I can't do 100 push ups yet. So I will be going back to week 3 and up a level. I'm not stopping until I can do it. Doing crunches is killing my abs -- I haven't tried yet but I think I can do about 200 consecutive now.

And yeah I did get to play soccer yesterday -- a little chilly, a bit muddy - but overall a good time.
Here's my question for today. Yes we all know what Sunday is V - day. So H and I got a V-day card for her from him. Probably get a small gift as well. What should I do, if anything?

I have searched all kinds of marriage sites for someone with my situation and you are it. My wife is in love with another man. Her complaint with me is I am a doormat. All our friends are shocked that she could be doing this to me since I am such a NG. I cook, clean, try to make her life as easy as possible. I am even letting her stay in our house until August when she says she is leaving. She needs a bad boy and I am not him. I have felt the exact emotions that you have described. And to make it even scarier, I too live in NC. I guess I am just a few months behind you though since I am just finding things out.
Good luck to you. I am trying to figure a way to move on but probably not going to happen as long as she is around.
And about V day. She is spending it with her new boyfriend. How is that for a kick in the gut.
I don't know if my w loves, loved or what with the OMs -- she still maintains just friends (or at least she did). I don't care anymore. I think moving on for each person is different. If I were you and knowing what I know now -- I would kick your w out of the house. She wants the OM --- then go. Plain and simple. And you can't worry about her "getting mad" at you. So what if she does -- life will go on.
You have to realize that she can't make you happy - only you can. Do things for yourself. Do you have kids? If so, just have as much fun with them when you are around them. I would suggest reading posts by BigBadWolf, MEM and Atholk and Deejo.
You need to get back to being a "man". Sure you will have tough spots -- we all do -- but just take it one step at a time. Look inward and rediscover who you are and what you want to do.
I'm in the Charlotte area, you?
